I have no idea how this thing ended up on my TBR, which means it probably came from Reddit, so it has happened. Reddit recommended a book I liked! Plot: Isabel Suarez has been burned. At her last job as a programmer for a video game company, she started dating a colleague, and the rest of the fuck boys decided that meant open season for the rest of the them. After she left, she decided not to take any chances – best her colleagues think […]

Elia Winters is a new to me author, but yet another of those delightful people I follow on Twitter. I heard good things about Hairpin Curves before seeing it on NetGalley. It was a fun road trip romance read. I received this as an arc from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Megan and Scarlett were friends as teens, but that ended when Scarlett ghosted Megan after they made plans to be college roommates. When another childhood friend invites them to her wedding in Canada, […]

Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
